Extremely welcome news.

I'm back after a health hiatus as well, so all is good in the world now. :lol:

He did the best job coaching Carmelo of any coach. Had nugs kept him 4 or 5 years Carmelo's career would be completely different.

He used to make Carmelo do things he was good at and got him easy baskets. After Bzz Carmelo got to just do what was easier and what he wanted.

ANyone else think there was more to the rumors of friction between Jeff Bzdelik and Melo? Melo arrived and Bzdelik was gone in the summer, now Bzdelik is back after thanksgiving and Melo is on his way out.

Good point. If that's the case, the organization should side with Bzdelik.

When you read this article, it becomes apparent that Bzdelik and Melo do not get along. I saw rumblings early on about "management undermining the coaching staff", and maybe this is what that was referring to. Either way, I side with Jeffy B.

also funny Gordon return when Melo is out
first i thought it was because Gordon stay here
maybe it had something to do who is the 6th man
you would think Melo accepted his bench role
or maybe he think he can be 6th man and not bench player

That's good to hear that he's already participating with the team to some extent, I thought we wouldn't get anything from him until after next week.

I haven't been following the Melodrama so I'm not sure what all is going on there, but whatever the case it needs to get straightened out sooner than later and hopefully the team will start to get back on the right track. I have only been able to catch a few games so far this season, but I don't feel like I've been missing out on very much.

That needs to change. Make it so!

He's only with the team now, because he lives in Denver, he won't be back with then fully until the day after Thanksgiving

Makes sense, thanks!

On that note: how in the hell is it already almost Thanksgiving? Geez...2018 is almost over and it's like it didn't even exist.
